Film & TV Styling Class with Cynthia Vanis
Hosted by SALON 
224 Roebling St. BK

Cynthia Vanis has over 15 years of experience as a department head, key hair stylist and personal hairstylist on film/television/commercials sets. We are excited to have the opportunity to host her for a class at Salon. This class is set up in two parts and stylists can sign up for the morning or full day. Space is limited and we encourage anyone who is interested in learning more about film, character styling, working in teams, and just expanding their knowledge to bring new tricks of the trade to their work behind the chair to join. 

Morning Session 10:00a - 1:30p:
Theory, Character Development, Demo
Cynthia will walk students through the creative process of character development from start to finish. Research, understanding how to read a script, working with teams on designing the hair for each character and the overall project, prepping before set, wigs and hair pieces, stunt doubles, execution, and maintaining consistency throughout the film project. This will include a styling demo. 

Afternoon Session 2:30p - 6:00p:
Hands-On Practice
Cynthia will work on designing a hair look with each student applying the knowledge from the morning session and styling on a model. Class size is limited to 5 students to ensure one-on-one and models must be provided by the students. You must attend theory in the morning to participate in the afternoon hands-on portion of the class.

Requirements:
Attendees must be working as professional hair stylists in a salon or on sets or attending cosmetology school.

Hands-on Students must bring their own model and simple hair kit. Details will be provided upon signing up and Salon can lend materials on an as needed basis.
